Remember, Obama also used an alias when he communicated with Hillary using her private server.

Of course, rather than give her a total blanket immunity he could pardon her for the use of her server and not say a word about the Clinton Foundation which is under investigation for "Pay to Play" access to her when she was SecState.


The best part is if he does this it will damage the Democratic party for years.
